Abstract
Hydrogen might be the energy carrier of the future. Before we repeat past mistakes, it is good to look at possible consequences for the climate. Hydrogen may leak at several points in a future hydrogen economy. In this report, these leakage points will be identified and the leakage rates will be used to model several possible scenarios. The found leakage rates are between 1.2% and 9.4% of the total amount of hydrogen used in a possible future system. These would cause 8.3% to 0.62% of a higher radiative forcing impact relative to what the stop of the use of natural gas in the Netherlands could decrease. With these found values a hydrogen economy would be beneficial towards combating climate change.
